The approximately 30,000-year-old artifact was
found in more than a dozen pieces inside a cave and was later
put back together by scientists at Germany’s University of
Tubingen.

The prehistoric object features carved rings
around one polished end, in addition to indented areas on
the tool where it was struck against flints to ignite fires.

The Oldest
Sex Toy in the World is estimated to be at least 28,000
years old and apparently had been discarded after being broken.
There's no evidence as to how that happened.

Scientists said artifacts displaying masculinity
weren’t common during this time, making the World's
Oldest Sex Toy discovery an unusual find.
